We are Ascent! and we help our customers solve problems, elevate, and do existing things better. We are on a mission to help our customers connect data, software, and purpose to create extraordinary outcomes. You could say we are a digital transformation business.

We specialize in software product development, analytics, data science, IoT solutions, machine learning, DevOps optimization, and modernization of applications, data, and platforms.

At Ascent, we also believe in fostering a vibrant office community where collaboration thrives and connections flourish.

About the role 

We are seeking an experienced and passionate Technical Architect with a deep technical background in .NET and Azure. As a Technical Architect, you will be responsible for designing scalable and high-performance systems while ensuring that our engineering teams are equipped with the best practices and architectural guidelines. While you will provide high-level architectural guidance, we expect our architects to be hands-on and actively contribute to the development process.

In the initial phase of a project, you will take on the responsibility of the lead engineer, building solutions and working alongside the team to implement the architecture you design. Once the project team establishes a good velocity and the architecture stabilizes, you will start transitioning out of the project and move on to another project. You can be involved in up to 3 projects at a time, but the focus will be on one of them.

Skills and qualifications

5+ years of experience in software engineering, with a focus on .NET development and Azure cloud services.
Strong expertise in designing and developing scalable web applications.
Familiarity with frontend development practices, ideally using React.
Proven experience with Azure cloud architectures and familiarity with infrastructure-as-code, ideally in Terraform.
Deep understanding of software architecture principles and design patterns.
Hands-on experience building and deploying applications using modern DevOps practices and tools.
Experience with CI/CD pipelines, version control, and familiarity with automated testing.
Excellent problem-solving skills, and the ability to think critically and provide innovative solutions.
Strong communication skills and the ability to collaborate effectively with both technical and non-technical stakeholders.
Ability to work in a fast-paced, dynamic environment and manage multiple priorities.
